Irwin County Man, Barricaded in His Home, Resisted Arrest.
FINALLY KILLED BY STATE MILITIA
W. H. Bostwick Was Wanted on Misdemeanor Charge, and When Officers Game to Arrest Him, He Opened Fire With Deadly Effect.
Ocilla, Ga.—Barricaded in his home in the western part of this, Irwin county, W. H. Bostwick, resisted two attacks of officers. He was a white man with a reputation for fighting proclivities and threatened to kill everybody who came in range of his bullets.
Those who died under his deadly fire are:
SHERIFF J. P. McINNIS of Irwin county.
STEPHEN DAVIS, chief of police of Cella.
TIM SHEEFIELD, deputy sheriff of Irwin county.
W. H. BOSTWICK, desperado, killed b yposse.
The injured are:
H. C. Bass, deputy sheriff of Irwin county, dangerously shot in abdomen and arm broken.
Wyatt a. Tucker, deputy sheriff of Irwin county, shot in stomach and probably fatally injured.
W. S. Gill, prominent farmer of Irwinville, fatally shot.
In the house with him were six of his children.
He was wanted on a misdemeanor charge, and Sheriff McInnis, with Chief Davis and Deputy Sheriff Bass and Tucker went to arrest him. When they came within close range of his house Bostwick opened fire. Chief Davis fell dead and Bass was wounded. The officers removed the dead and wounded and summoned a posse from Ocilla and Irwinville and surrounded the house. Sheriff McInnis, with Deputies Tucker and Sheffield led the onslaught and Bostwick killed Sheffield instantly and wounded the two other officers.
Irwinville, Ga.—Fanatically defiant, even while the shadows of death closed around him and volley after volley from the new Springfield rifles of two state militia companies made a sieve of the walls of his humble home, W. H. Bostwick, the white desperado, who killed three officers of the law and seriously wounded three others, paid the penalty of death. He succumbed to many wounds received from the volley fired into the building early in the night by a mob of infuriated citizens or from those of the military companies. Almost at the same moment Sheriff P. J. McInnis of Irwin county, who was wounded while making a desperate attempt to remove a wounded fellow officer from the range of Bostwick's deadly fire, expired, James Gill, another officer, was added to the list of wounded, but it is believed that he will recover.
Surrounded by his six little children whom he held prisoners almost to the end of the siege, Bostwick, who had declared the intention of dying rather than submit to arrest on the charge of attempting to murder his brother-in-law because of a dispute growing out of the settlement of his wife's estate, Bostwick fought the battle to the last ditch, an dnot once did a word or sign of surrender pass his lips or appear in the expression of his determined features. Knowing that death was near, the desperate man finally allowed the fear-striken children to leave the house, but the children, remembering the harrowing experiences of the night, still held their father in such fear that they would not reveal one incident of the night,
Bold 'Hold-Up on the Oregon Short Line Railway.
Ogden, Utah. — Oregon Short Line passenger train No. 1 was held up at Five Points and every passenger on the train robbed of his valuables. The robbers boarded the train at Ogden and held up the passenger as soon as the train left the city limits. A brakeman was shot at twice, but escaped injury. A woman was badly beaten and an unknown man, a foreigner, was also severely beaten. The bandits, three in number, struck down every one who offered the very slightest resistance. The express messenger was compelled to give up his keys and the express car was searched. One of the robbers remarked that they knew there was no money in the car, but they would make a search anyhow. Sheriff Wilson and posae is in pursuit. The exact amount the robbers obtained has not been determined.
Washington, D. C.—The labor organizations lost their fight to gain exemption from prosecution under the antitrust and interstate commerce laws, after a hot debate in the house, the house agreed to striking out a provision in the sundry civil bill that affected this immunity.
Washington's Population.
Washington, D. C.—The population of the District of Columbia is 331,069, according to the returns of the thirteenth decennial census. The population of the District of Columbia in 1900 was 278,718. Tails show an increase during the last ten years of 62,351, or 18.8 per cent.

The
COTTON CROP REPORT.
The High Temperature During the Past Week Helped the Cotton Plant. Memphis, Tenn.—The Commercial- Appeal prints this summary of cotton crop conditions; Cotton in the south has grown more during the past seven days than in any similar period this season, a fact due generally to higher temperatures. Where the rainfall has not been excessive, as it was in North Carolina, southern Georgia and in scattered localities elsewhere east of the Mississippi river, cultivation made rapid progress and the fields are clean. The plant, though still small for the season, is healthy and sturdy, and bids fair to rapidly overcome some of its lateness. In North Carolina and southern Goergia grass has become a menace, but little damage has been done that two weeks' favorable weather will not overcome.
"In Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and eastern Texas there are few complaints. The crop did well and is becoming rapidly promising.
"In central and western Texas rain is beginning to be needed, although up to the present time, save in the most western counties where cotton is grown in quantity no important harm has been done the crop. In these western districts, however, hot winds have been hurful."
Montgomery, Ala. — Soaking reins and hot sunshine have alternated during the last week and have combined to place the cotton in excellent condition. Although the crop is several weeks late, if present conditions continue, it soon will resume the normal. This is especially true of the replanted crop. Grass is bad, and labor in the fields is badly needed in many places. It is said that the corn acreage has increased about 20 percent, and that the crop will be sufficient to supply the demand for the next two years.
TAFT IS ELATED
President Please With the Legislation Enacted by Congress.
Cincinnati, Ohio—In a signed statement in the Times-Star, President Taft is quoted as follows:
"Washington, D. C.—I am elated at the legislation which has been enacted by this congress. It has fulfilled the pledges of the party. It is a great satisfaction to me that we have accomplished so much. It has been the custom in the past to try to fulfill party pledges during the term of the president elected; we have secured what we started out to get during the first regular session of congress.
"We now have the best railroad regulation law we ever had. The provisions for the supervision of capitalization were omitted, but this does not mean that they have been abandoned. Renewed effort to enact will be made at the next session."
"I think the party in power has enacted legislation which will inure greatly to its benefit. It has kept its contract. The congress which is now closing its first regular session people to do and the republican party has good record to take to the people in the coming elections."
FIRST BALE SOLD.
First Bale of Cotton is Sold for 50 Cents a Pound.
New York City—The first bale of the cotton crop of 1910-11 was sold at auction here and brought 50 cents per pound, the proceeds being for the usual charity.
This bale was picked at Hidalgo county, Texas, weighed about 416 pounds and was classed as good middling cotton. It was first sold at Houston, Texas, on June 23, for $375 The cotton will be shipped to Liverpool, where it will be again auctioned.
Parole Bill Agreed To.
Washington, D. C.—The house has adopted the conference report on the bill to parole federal prisoners. The measure will now go to President Taft for his approval. Under the provisions of this law federal prisoners who strictly observe the rules of the institution to which they are confined are entitled to parole after having served one-third of their sentence. This legislation will work to the relief, of Banker Charles W. Morse, now serving a fifteen-year sentence in the federal prison at Atlanta.
Left $7,000,000 to Sweetheart-
Spokane, Wash.—Mrs. Dolly Baker of Coeur d'Alene City, Idaho, is said to be heiress to $7,000,000. Twenty years ago she said goodbye to her girlhood sweetheart, Arthur B. Travers in Montana and he journeyed to Australia. The girl grew tired of waiting and married Judge W. J. Grout, later divorcing him and marrying Baker. Now comes word that Travers became a cattle king in Australia, cleared up $7,000,000 and died leaving all to Mrs. Baker.
Postal Banks Bill Signed.
Washington, D. C—President Tatt signed the postal savings bank bill, using three pens. These were afterward given to Representatives Weeks of Massachusetts, Garner of New Jersey and Murdock of Kansas, the three house members who worked indefatigably for the measure in the form in which it was finally adopted by the house of representatives.
Buildings' Bill Signed.
Washington, D. C.—President. Taft signed the, public building bill' which authorizes the expenditure of $22,000,000, but does not actually, appropriate the money. The appropriation left to the next congress.
Savannah Tri THE TRIBUNE OFFICE REMOVED TO 462 WEST BROAD STREET. SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, JULY 2, 1910.
Count Zeppelin's Balloon, Deutschland. Met With Disaster.
Dusseldorf, Germany—Count Zeppelin's passenger airship Deutschland—the highest developed 'of all the aeronauts' models, lies on the top of the Teutobourgian forest, pierced with pine tree stems, a mass of deflated silk and twisted aluminum. The thirty-three passengers aboard, after a wild contest with the storm, escaped unhurt, climbing down a rope ladder from the wreck on the pine tops.
Herr Colesmann, general manager of the new airship company; Chief Engineer Durr of the Zeppelin company, and Captain Kannenberg, who personally had charge of the crew of ten, and twenty newspaper men saliued from Dusseldorf, when a high head wind prevailed, and an effort was made to reach Munster, a garrison town, so that a landing might be made on the parade ground.
It was dangerous to attempt a landing in an open field, because of the storm, as the metal was likely to pound to pieces. One of the motors refused to work, and the other two were not powerful enough to make any progress in the gale. The airship drifted, swaying in the violent guests, and sometimes leaning to an angle of 40 degrees, and all the while the enginemen were at work repairing the disabled motor. When this was done, all four screws were driven at their full-power, with which under normal conditions the ship was capable of attaining a speed of 40 miles an hour. But the helmsman was unable to keep his course as the great craft was swung about at the mercy of the winds.
Colesman did not dare to turn the ship around for fear of overturning, and he decided to drift in the gale, which was now blowing, at the rate of 50 miles an hour toward Osnabruck, which is also a garrison station. If he missed that, he would continue on to Senle.
Suddenly he plerced a whirlwind, coming, and ascended to a height of nearly 4,000 feet to avoid the worst of it. With the whirlwind came an avalanche of rain. After half an hour, the Deutschland came down to permit of observations, and it was seen that the Teutoburgian forest lay below. The forward motor again stopped, and Coleman sent five of the correspondents to the att gondola to balance the vessel.
The Deutschland sank rapidly, having lost much gas in the high altitudes, and dragged along the top of the dense forest. A heavy branch of a tree broke through the floor of the cabin amidships, throwing two of the guests to the floor. Other branches ripped through the gas compartments, and the whole great structure settled down 30 or 40 feet from the ground.
"It is not the fault of the Zeppelin system," exclaimed Herr Colesmann; "that is all right. It is our own fault, and our benzine ran out."
The airship for which Herr Coleman's company had just paid $137,500, looked like a wreck. The frames were broken, but the motors were not damaged. The silk was ripped, and had fallen in to torn mass on the tops of the trees. A rope ladder was swung down, and every $^o$ one was mustered below, uninfused except for a bruise or two.
SENATOR M'ENERY DEAD.
Senior U. S. Senator from Louisiana Passes Away.
New Orleans, La—United States Senator Samuel Douglas McEnery died at his home here. Senator McEnery was in the 74th year of his age, and his health had not been good for several years. During his services as a senator, Mr. McEnery was known as an independent democrat, who voted frequently with the republicans.
Baton Rouge, La—Following the news of the death of United States Senator McEnery, political leaders are gathering here to discuss the situation. It is generally conceded that Governor Sanders will be elected if he announces his candidacy.
Senator McEnery was born in Monroe, La., May 28, 1837, and was a graduate of the United States naval academy and the University of Virginia. He served through the war as a Confederate officer.
FATAL AUTO ACCIDENT.
Touring Car Demolished by: Central
of Georgia Train at Kelley's Crossings.
Macon, Ga—An extra freight train on the Macon and Athean division of the Central railway struck a tourist car belonging to A. C. Freeman, of Arcadia, Fla., at Kelley's Crossing, 48 miles north of Macon, killing Mrs. Freeman and her son, A. C. Freeman, Jr., aged 7, and badly injuring A. C. Freeman, L. L. Camp and Dr. J. L. Roble.
All the occupants of the automobile were touring from Arcadia, except Dr. Roble, who is a resident of Monticello. He is an elderly man and sustained a broken arm add severe internal injuries.
CONGRESS CLOSES
Solons Pass a Record Amount of Progressive Legislation.
Washington, D. C.—Notwithstanding the fact that action on many import- an measures was delayed by conflicts between "insurgents" and "regular" republican factions in both branches and that the democratic minority was an active force, congress concluded its long session with a record for enacting legislation that seldom, if ever, has been equaled. The alliance of insurgent republicans and democrats was responsible for much of the progressive legislation. Chief in the list of legislation for which the administration contended were the following: Striking revision of the railroad laws, including the creation of a commerce court. Admitting Arizona and New Mexico as seprate states.
Authorizing the establishment of postal savings hanks.
postal savings banks.
Giving the president unlimited authority to withdraw public funds for conservation purposes.
Providing for publicity of campaign contributions.
Authorizing the issue of $20,000,000, in certificates of indebtedness, to complete reclamation projects.
Creating a bureau of mines.
Creating a bar chart
Extending the activities of the tariff board and appropriating $250,000
for its use.
Looking to the suppression of traffic in "white slaves."
Authorizing the entry of the surface of coal lands
Creating a commission to consider economies in the administration of the federal government.
Providing a new tariff system for the Philippine Islands.
* Legislation which ultimately is expected to give practically prohibition to the Hawaiian Islands.
Opposed to the foregoing list of legislation obtained were a number of measures which had administration sympathy, but failed of passage. They were measures on the subject of -shlp subsidy, anti-injunction, for new form of government in Alaska and on the Panama Zone; to create a bureau of health; to provide increased rates of postage for second class mall matter; to create the Appalachian forest reserve, and increase the engineer corps of the army.
The enormous proportions of the demands for legislation which are pressed upon congress is shown by the fact that since the beginning of the present congress more than 27,000 bills have been introduced in the house and more than 9,000 in the senate in addition to hundreds of resolutions on various subjects. This record, so far as the number of bills is concerned, is without parallel.
CAUSE OF HIGH PRICES.
Senate Committee's Reasons for High Cost of Living.
Washington, D. G.—Republicans and democrats do not agree as to the causes for the great increase in the cost of living between 1900 and 1910. The majority report of the special senate committee which has been investigating these questions was submitted to the senate by Senator Lodge, chairman of the committee. The minority report will be presented later. The majority of the committee found that of the many causes contributing to the advance in prices, the following were most marked. Increased cost of production of farm products by reason of higher land values and higher wages. Increased demand for farm products and food. Shifting of population from food-producing to food-consuming occupations and locations. Reduced fertility of land resulting in lower average production, or in increased expenditures for fertilization.
It was found that this not only steadied prices, but had a tendency to increase them. Cold storage plants, which result in preventing extreme fluctuations of prices of certain commodities with the seasons, but by enabling the wholesalers to buy and sell them to the best possible advantage, tend to advance prices. Increased cost of distribution. Industrial combination.
Organizations of producers, or of dealers.
Advertising.
Increased money supply.
Overcapitalization.
Higher, standard of living.
Remarried After 25 Years.
Church Point, La.—After a separation of 25 years, Mr. and Mrs. Jules Setlg, the latter living a few miles north of here and the former having resided in Opelousas, La, were reunited in marriage here. Both are well advanced in years.
Newsy Paragraphs.
The wholesale price of beef in the New York market has reached thirteen cents, the highest in the history of the industry, and 1 cent more than was charged when the meat boycots were started some months ago. A similar advance has been made in other lines of meat products.
Judge Grasscup of the federal circuit court of appeals in an address before the Philadelphia Law Academy offered as a solution of the conservation problem the plan to limit the profits of railroads to a fair per cent on a fair valuation of their property. In that way he thought swollen fortunes might be avoided and equitable prices and rates would prevail.
TO TAKE THE LAST CENSUS OF INDIANS
Ten Years From New Red Men Will All Be Citizens.
TRIBAL -RELATIONS WIPED OUT
Washington, D. C.-The enumeration of the Indian population will be a feature of the thirteenth decennial census of the United States. It is calculated by officials of the census bureau that ten years hence all the red men will have become citizens and consequently this is the last census that will be taken, showing their tribal relations. For this reason it has peculiar interest and extreme precautions, it is said, were taken to obtain an accurate count and all the information possible in regard to their condition.
When the census office placed its enumerators in the field among the Indians, it stationed about twenty special agents in the Indian country who were versed in the affairs of the red man to oversee the work of the enumerators. The relations are being closely scrutinized by these agents, and it is believed an especially accurate record will be obtained.
The response to the schedule of questions will show Indian tribal relations; proportion of Indian and other blood; number of times married; whether now living in polygamy; if living in polygamy, whether wives are sisters; education; whether or not he is taxed; whether he has received his allotment; and whether living in civilized or aboriginal dwelling.
CANNONLEAVESWASHINGTON
To Die in the Last Ditch Purpose of Speaker Cannon.
Washington, D. C. "God willing I'll be here next session, and it will be for the republican majority to determine who shall be speaker."
Speaker Cannon paid a farewell call at the white house and the above is what he had to say regarding his future plans.
"To make a hare pie," continued the speaker, "you have got first to catch your hare. I may not be living when the next session of congress comes around. But if I am it will be at the hands of the great republican party to do with me as they will. There are a lot of folks who think chaos would reign if I came back as speaker. They prate about cairism and all that sort of thing, but let that go.
"In all my life I have never seen a situation so full of promise for a republican victory in the fall. It always happens that the democrats win hands down at this time of the year, but when the ballots are counted they come out behind, as usual."
Scores of senators and representatives caled at the white house to pay their respects and to say goodbye to the president.
HART A CANDIDATE.
Attorney General of Georgia Announces for Governor. Atlanta $ _{1} $ Ga—Judge John C. Hart attorney general of Georgia for the past eight years, announced his candidacy for governor. Judge Hart will stump the state and speak at several places at early dates,
speak at several places at early dates, Judge Hart disavows any personal ambition. He says he enters the race on account of his friendship for both the other avowed candidates. He concedes it to he his duty to the state. He feels that it will bring about peace. Peace between the warring factions; peace through the elimination of both factions; peace through the leadership of the two contending political elements in the state; peace through the wiping out of old party lines and the selection of a new leader in the person of himself. This is the dream of the distinguished gentleman who for the past eight years has occupied the position of Georgia's highest judicial officer.

RUCKER HAS RESIGNED.
Georgia Revenue Collector Will Be Appointed to a Washington Job. Washington, D. C.—The resignation of Collector of Internal Revenue A.H. Rucker of Georgia has been received by the president. It is generally understood that Collector Rucker will at a very early date be appointed to some position in Washington. The appointment of another collector for Georgia is likely to be made any day, and it is conceded on all sides that the new collector will be Henry S. Jackson, of Atlanta, president of the Georgia Association of Taft Clubs. It is known that the president notified him some time ago that he intended to appoint him.
USES OF AGRICULTURAL LIME
Aid to Pertility of Land Realized By the Southern Farmers.
Atlanta, Ga.—Realization by farmers of the southeast of the great benefits to be secured by the use of agricultural lime and a consequent rapid increase in the consumption of that product, are indicated in the report of the freight traffic department of the Southern Railway Company for May. The report shows that plants turning out this products at points on the Southern Railway in Virginia now have a daily capacity of 3,000 barrels and that additions and improvements now in progress and prospect will increase this output to 5,000 barrels daily in a short time; while only a few years ago the entire capacity was 75 barrels per day.
The use of agricultural lime and its beneficent effects, particularly in sour soil lacking nitrogen and consequently deficient in plant food, is attracting the attention of soil experts and agricultural writers as are few other subjects at this time. A most interesting paper showing the good effects to be obtained, entitled "Bulletin No. 1," has been issued by the Virginia Truck Experiment Station, located at Norfolk. A number of bulletins on the same subject have been issued by the means of soils of the United States department of agriculture from which copies can be procured by farmers and anyone interested in soil improvement.
The government experiments and the experiences of individual farmers which are dealt with in these bulletins should prove of unusual interest to planters and farm land owners of the South Atlantic States, since it is declared that in a great many sections of this territory, where land is less productive than in more favored portions of the southeast, the lack of fertility is, in a large measure, due to the acidity of the soil. Experiments by the federal and state department of agriculture have developed the fact that this can be corrected by the use of bioseeds and the growth of leguminous plants. Lords which had been abandoned as practically worthless have been brought to a high state of productiveness in this manner as pointed out in the state and government publications, which may be had for the asking.
Lime is not used in place of manure or commercial fertilizers, its use being entirely supplementary, and one of its chief advantages being the power which it gives soil to retain the manure or fertilizer applied to it. There are large deposits of lime rock in practically every section of the southeast, and its use for agricultural purposes has been the basis of the great fertility of the famous Blue Grass region of Kentucky, the Great Valley of Virginia, the fertile country of Tennessee and northern Alabama, and other notably productive areas. The Southern Railway Company is endeavoring to encourage the use of this product, which the farmers of the south can find practically at their doors both by urging the erection of more plants for its preparation and by granting favorable tariffs for the transportation of the product.
ANTI-TYPHOID VACCINE.
French Doctor Discovers Preventive for Typhoid Fever.
Paris, France—Professor Vincent announced before the Academy of Medicine the discovery of an effective anti-typhoid vaccine which is prepared by steeping typhus bacillus in a weak solution of water and sodium chloride (common salt) with an admixture of ether.
Professor Vincent made a number of experiments with animals which, after being vaccinated, withstood subsequent inoculation with typhoid germs. He then vaccinated 13 persons, an examination of whose blood after the operation showed that it possessed to a high degree properties destructive of the typhoid bacillus.
Further experiments demonstrated the fact that typhoid bacillus when placed in contact with the serum of the blood taken, from the person vaccinated, lost all vitality.
New York City—The announcement from Paris of the discovery of a new anti-typhoid vaccine is likely to prove of considerable interest to American medical men. According to an announcement by Commissioner Eugene H. Porter of the New York state department of health, there are more cases of typhoid in the United States than any other country. Thirteen hundred deaths from typhoid were reported in this state in 1909.
Washington News.
The World's Missionary conference at Edinburgh, Scotland, was held with delegates from all parts of the world. It was shown that three hundred and thirty-eight organizations are maintaining missionary stations and collect for that purpose $24,676,000 a year. Speaker Cannon has decided to go on an extensive campaign tour in the fall under the direction of the republican congressional committee, and intimates that he will invade the insurgent strongholds.
A bill was introduced in both senate and house to permit Associate Justice Moody of the United States supreme court to retire on account of long-continued illness, and extending to him the benefit of the act retiring members of the supreme court for age and ten years' service, with pay. It gives Justice Moody six months in which to arrange his retirement. Mr. Moody, who is confined to his home in Haverhill, Mass., is now fifty-three years old. He has long been a sufferer from rheumatism.

Former Governor Smith Is Again a Candidate.
JUDGE PERRY WITHDRAWS
Indications Are That Campaign Will Be 'a Quiet As Well As a Short One---Few
Atlanta, Ga. — Former Governor Hoke Smith will oppose Governor Joseph M. Brown in the race for governor of Georgia.
Once more the leaders of the two wings of the democratic party in this state will clash in political combat and will submit their differences to the judgment of the people.
Former Governor Smith has declared pointedly and emphatically that he is in the race for governor. Immediately after he announced his decision to make the race, Judge H. H. Perry of Galnesville, who has been in the

field with the flag which Governor Smith carried in 1906 and 1908, informed the latter that he had retired from the race in his favor, leaving the issue to be fought out by the acknowledged leaders of the two political divisions in the state.
Governor Smith's decision to make the race for governor against Governor Brown was made after he had issued two separate statements declaring that he could-not make the race because of personal reasons which he did not discuss, and it was made after persistent urging on the part of his friends that he should again become a candidate.
It is believed the campaign this time will be conducted on lines differnet from those which were followed in the race of 1908, in which

Governor Brown defeated Governor Smith.
Governor Brown has stated that he will not leave his office to get into the campaign; that if he can possibly avoid it he will do nothing to inflict a heated and vindictive political controversy upon the people of the state and that his campaign for re-election will be conducted quietly, as it was in 1908. The governor has not yet decided whether he will establish campaign headquarters.
Although he will make a few speeches in places yet to be decided upon, it is stated that Governor Smith will not make an extensive campaign over the state as he has done in his 'two previous campaigns. He will not stump the state, but will spend more time in his office, directing his campaign from there.
Governor Brown hda no statement to make concerning the race. He issued his formal announcement several days ago. Governor Smith had no statement to make further than that he is in the race. The campaign will necessarily be a short one, in view of the fact that the primary of August 23 is barely two months in the future.
GEORGIA'S PENSION ROLL.
Net Gain of 186 in Pension Names During Year.
Atlanta, Ga—More names were added to the state's pension rolls during 1909 than were lost by reason of death and other causes. The new names numbered 1,304 and the losses 1,118. making the net total gain 186. These names called for an increase of $11,159 in pension payments, the total payments to all pensioners for the year being $938,934.
This increase in the pension list resulted despite the fact that the constitutional amendment adopted in 1908 has not been put into effect by legislative enactment. That amendment authorized the payment of pensions to all confederate soldiers and all widows of ex-confederate soldiers now living who are not worth over $1,500. The law relative to widows
BOL. C. JOHNSON,
of soldiers covers all widows who were married before the year 1870. These figures are given in the annual report of Pension Commissioner John W. Lindsay for the year ending December 31, 1909, which report has just been transmitted to the governor.
THROUGHOUT GEORGIA.
The peach crop of Jasper county is extremely good this season, and already several car loads have been shipped to the eastern mrakets.
The report of Adjutant General Andrew J. Scott, just made to Governor Brown, shows, that the National Guard of Georgia now numbers 237 officers and 2,733 men. The strength of the reserve militia, consisting of all those liable to service in the militia, but not serving in the national guard or naval militia, is placed at 506,000 men. The annual muster and inspection of the militia and property by Major F. L. Palmer, United States Army, retired, is said to have proven of great benefit through its use of the merit system of grading each organization.
Spalding county, which has a contract with Butts county to work the roads in exchange for the use of convicts, will soon send the entire convict, camp to Butts county; to work on the roads between Jackson and

Big Demand for Skyscrapers.
Probably nothing has occurred to illustrate quite so forcibly the demand for skyscrapers in the metropolis as the work begun a day or two ago of demolishing a twenty-story building in Nassau street, erected only twelve years ago and in perfect condition today, in order that it may be replaced with a thirty-two story building. When the present building was erected it was the tallest in the city. It stands on a plot of ground 25x74 feet, which was bought recently for $1,250,000. On the site will be erected a magnificent office building to cost $4,000,000.

The sacrifice of such a good building as the one just delivered into the hands of the wrecker would have seemed like wanton waste to the people of a generation ago, but ideas have, changed along with the tremendous advance in land values. Nor is the tendency toward higher and yet higher buildings confined to Manhattan island, by any means, though it finds its most striking manifestations in that quarter. The drift in the direction of high buildings is very marked in many urban centers of this country.—Springfield Union.
A Confessión.
Lord' Kitchener had determined to avoid all public functions during his trip across the country. He yielded however, to the insistent demand that he attend a banquet in honor of Bear Admiral Sobree in San Francisco. In a modest after-dinner speech he praised the career of the admiral. Because it was a naval banquet the talk naturally turned to the sea and sailors.
"Sailors as a class," said Lord Kitchenor, "have a very keen sense of humor. I remember a story of a sailor; just back from a six months' cruise. The young man had been celebrating his return to land all evening in various public houses. Emerging from the last bar a little unsheedy but very jovial, he danced along the street waving a bottle of stout.
"For a sailor," he said to his companions, "it is disgraceful what I am going to say, but it is the truth—I have a horror of water!"—Washington Star.

True Forever BY Q-R-
The Spirit
It hung on the mountains where, faded
and cold, and gold.
Alaska conceals in the mowdrifts her gold;
It walks in the South where the cotton is

And the strings of the banjo are humming all night.
Rain or shine, every year on the very
It raises Old Glory in every State.
A gay young cavaller, in the scarlet and gold of an English soldier's uniform, stood talking with a brown-haired girl on the veranda of a quaint old Dutch house in New Jersey.
It was in the year 1776, and the young people were typical representatives of two widely different classes, with a bitter, feud between them.
But young hearts are often truer, to nature than to the well-taught rules of social prejudice, and so the British regular talked in low, eager tones with the Puritan maiden, and both forgot how seriously they ought to hate each other.
"I believe your heart is with us," said the girl, looking up with a happy smile into the face that bent above hers, and meeting the earnest eyes.
"My heart is with you, little Faith
—that I will not deny," answered the
soldier. "And I remember very well
all the arguments that our dear Corn-
walls, used against this war before
we left England, but I have deferred
to say, with him: My secret thoughts
belong to my soul, and my soul to
God; but my right arm is my King's,
and all the strength of my body must
go with that. Therefore you will
win no treasonable words from me
Only remember, darling, that I am
yours, and you are mine, and when
this strife is ended, if I live, I will
come back to claim you; if I die, I
will be with you in spirit."
"Dear Gill, do not talk in that way.
You know there is an old legend that
the Veser bear charmed lives in bat-
tle days."
Hariyole trembled as she spoke.
"And you, too, are a Verel," he
said, almost triumphantly.
Then turning to the long window that opened from the veranda where they stood, she slipped the diamond ring from his finger, and wrote in a clear, round hand on the glass:
"Falth Vere Underworde."
"Now, remember, little one, you are to be my faithful heart, to wait patiently until I am free. Then we will add another 'Vere' to your name, and walk henceforth our path in life side by side, heart to heart, hand in hand."
"Oh, Gill it seems so real to you and so solemn, that I snudder when I think of it; and how angry our parents would be if they knew we had found each other again, and here!"

anything sad or hopeless. See how your name glitters there in the glass,
It cannot be rubbed, or worn, or washed; or faded out; it is as indeuctible as the material on which it is traced, and if one should break the brittle pane to atoms, on every fragment the sharp lines would show. So it is with our love. When the ocean rolled between us, the lines that love had graven on our hearts remained unefraced, and now that fate has brought us together, again, I wish—oh, I do wish, that we might never part."
The passion and pathos in his voice were hittit to hear—but those were battle days and full of sorrow. They both knew that parting was, very near.
"I must go home to Massachusetts next week." They call me rebel and a traitor here, real, though I am rather proud of being a rebel and a traitor. I do not like to hear those words used as terms of reproach. Perhaps father will be at home soon. It seems to meet the fighting must be nearly done.
"There are years of harder fighting before us than any we have seen. We cannot give up; the King will not allow it; and the stupid, stubborn conflants will not surrender; so we have no choice but to exterminate them, and thus secure to the King his lands and possession."
"Exterminate her," Kuhin (America), and give back our lands to the King."
The young face wore a look of de-
earth,
Of America, glorious land of his birth!

The magical meaning of Liberty's name.
It calls from the dust of the shot-riddled

"We will not talk of it, dear," the young man said "but though we both go away so soon I may return here in your absence. There is no knowing what way the tide of strife may surge."
"And if you do come and I am not here, will you leave some sign by which I may know that your thought of me?
"Yes, dear. Some true and silent sign that only we two of all the world shall recognize, like the 'secret name'

I not see you at the party to night!" I pictured it.
"No, I think not. I do not care about the gay people who are coming; and the girls, my cousins, are constantly alluding to me ns a rebel, and though Uncle Stuyvesant is very kind and will not let me he annoyed when he is present, still one likes better to be with heart-friends, even if there is danger in the place."
"Truly spoken, like your own brave self; and now I must go back to quarters, but I will come again tomorrow morning."
"And I will wait for you here."
He kissed, her on her tear-wet eyes and trembling mouth, broke a spray of roses from a low, drooping vine, gave them to her and went on his way.
That night the British troops were called, to Trenton, and the next day Faith waited in vain for her lower.
She went home sooil and waited, through weary weeks for the tidings that came not. At last she was sent again to New Jersey after the battle-tide had swept by.
She dared not ask, her haughty cousins, the question that Jay nearest to her heart, but one of them volunteered her the information, soon after, her arrival, that Gilchrist Stanhope had been there the week before.
"And did he inquire for me?" she queried, cagery.
"For you?" No, he never once spoke your name!"
The poor girl turned away to hide her tears. He had not remembered, then—he had left, no package, no letter, not even a word for her. She wandered out upon the veran-

She spelled it out with a fast-throbbing heart and a prayer on her lips for him. This was the silent sign
that only they two could understand,
and she knew he would be "true forever."
Ear away on a blood-stained battlefield a young soldier lay dying.
"The sacred name in the white stone's heart—Faith, darling, true forever," he murmured in a falling voice, and the brief, fierce delirium was over forever.

Recent Discovery of Skotchein and Papers. Kept by a French Officer. During the American Revolution.
As recent discovery in Europe, of sketches and papers kept by one of the officers of the French army will lie in this country during the War of Independence has proved most interesting. The manuscripts were found in the castle of the Von Closen family, in Bavaria, near Munich, and include the journals of Ludwig, Baron von Closen, aldei to Count Rochambue. The portraits and sketches, as well as the many papers which accompany them, are of great historical value. There is a silhouette of Nelle Cuslin, a crayon drawing by Alexander Hamilton of Martha Washington, and a portrait of Baron von Closen himself. The journal consists of two large volumes of two hundred pages each, closely written in French. These manuscripts and portraits were shown to President Roosevelt and were returned to the Von Closen family after a transcript of the journal had been made by the Library of Congress.
One of the manuscripts in the collection, contains the orders given, by Count Rochambeau before the embarkation of the French army in Rhode Island. A description is given of the entire organization and mode of payment of the corps, which is declared an auxiliary to the American army. The French soldiers 'Shall add black to their cockade, because it (black) is the color of the United States of America." How the army returned in five divisions from Virginia to Boston at the close of the Revolutionary War is described in another document. The number of miles covered by the several divisions is given; the villages, taverns, fords and bridges on the way are set down, as well as the places where the different divisions halted. Reference may also be made to Galvin, mentioned for his conspicuous bravery in the orders of the day by Lafayette in his report on the affair between Wayne and Cornwallis. Galvin committed suicide in Philadelphia, July 24, 1782. A letter from Galvin, found after his death, addressed to Lientenant-Colonel Livingston, Major Clarkson and William Bingham, begah as follows: "Adlen, my dear friends. Life has become too heavy a burden."
From the same letter is translated this sentence, which refers to Miss Sally Shippen, one of three daughters of Edward Shippen, of Philadelphia, the youngest daughter, being well known as Margaret, or Peggy, Shippen, the second wife of General Benedict Arnold: "Give my portrait to Miss Sally Shippen, and tell her that gratitude for her friendship will be one of the last emotions that shall accompany me in death." Galvin's letter ends as follows: "I depart as gavely and almost as eagerly as when our friend General Wayne sent me to attack Lord Cornwallis, and I hope that I may succeed·befter in outflanking love than I did in outflanking the English army,"—From "A French Officer With Washington and Rochambeau," in the Century.

SUGGESTIONS FOR CELEBRATING A QUIETLY PATRIOTIC DAY.
It has become a question every year with parents, "Shall we get fireworks for our boys and girls?" They are better off with the eyes and arms than with all the noisy gunpowder that was ever produced, even if they do feel they are taking a part in proclaiming their patriotism.
Why not buy them some, of the pretty set pieces that are less dangerous than guns, pistols and firecrackers that may accidentally burst or shoot in the eye of the child, making him a lifelong sufferer?
There are the electrical fireworks, too, those that send out little sparklets that are dainty, and not, at all harmful and the flower pots that look so pretty when throwing on the different colors. Then, too, you will find the roman candles and skyrocks eat up enough money, but not half as much as the many packs of dreecrackers a boy will burn in one morning.
Take your children away from the noisy city and arrange your fireworks so they may be set off in the suburbs somewhere and enjoy them after you have had an evening meal near the woods. It will give you and the children a beautiful display of fireworks without the attending trouble that the noisy varieties so often produce. Diana, in Brooklyn Eagle.

'New York City'—Shiftwaits that are made with 'middle fatness' are much in vogue, just now, and are very generally becoming. This one is laid in a succession of plets, but all except the outermost tare attached for full length so that there is only a limited amount of fatness. The middle collard the neck of loveliness, and the

slightly open neck makes a feature of the season. The 'blows' is adapted to both the odd waist and the entire gown and to almost all the simpler seasonable materials, linen, madras, pouge, cotton poplin, and also the thinner lawns and batistes, for waists of this kind, are made from all. While linen makes this one, however, and is trimmed with bands of rose color, while the tie is made to match. If three-quarter sleeves are not, liked long ones in regulation shirtwaist style, can be substituted. The waist consists of fronts and back. The collar is joined to the neck edge and the closing is made at the centre front, where there is a wide box pleat. The elbow sleeves are gathered into bands and finished with rolled over cuffs, but the long ones are finished with over-laps and straight cuffs in shirtwaist style.
The quantity of material required for the medium size is four and one-half yards twenty-one or twenty-four, three yards thirty-two or two and one-half yards forty-four inches wide, with three-eighth yard twenty-four inches wide for the bands.
Velvets in Vorne.
Paris-costumers show many ready-to-wear costumes constructed of chiffons, marquisettes and chiffon cloths. Built over 'satin foundations. Another Paris fashion idea favors the use, of velvetia for next fall and winter. Velvetia were much in evidence in Paris and other fashion centres last season. Velveleens will doubtless participate in the increased demand, and as raw cotton is now about sixty per cent' higher than it was at this time last year, 'prices of velveleens are steadily advancing.
Girl's Coat.
In Full or Three-Quarter Length.
With Notched or Shawl Collar.
With or Without Pockets.
Embroidered Russian House.
The Russian blouse suit opens
many possibilities for the needle-
worker to make her own embroidery.
A straight embroidered band along
the left front side of the jacket
is suggested. It may be braided or
plainly embroidered. A circular
piece, with scant ruffle at the edge,
can be used for a collar. Ours may
be trimmed or left plain. A small
design on the front panel of the skirt
is stylish.
Cut On the Bias.
Old bias band trimming has been revived and is seen on gingham, on silk and on cloth. Some of the very latest black and white striped clothes in Paris are simply trimmed, with the same material cut on the bias and stitched, in the good, old-fashioned way.
The princess bathing suit is an exceedingly smart one and greatly invogue this season. Illustrated is a model made with close fitting body portion and pleated skirt, so that it gives princesses lines and comparative snugness at the same time that it is loose and free at the lower portion. There are dart-fitted knickerbockers, too, that do away with bulk over the hips, yet are abundantly wide at the knees. Dotted silk with bands of plain is the material illustrated, but mohair is always a standard material for bathing suits, pongee is much liked and all materials that are correct for such costumes can be utilized for this one with trimmings of contrasting material or banding as liked. If preferred the neck can be made round instead of V-shaped.
The suit is made with the body portion, the skirt and bloomers. The body portion consists of front, back and side-front and side-back portions. It is joined to the skirt or flounce, which is straight and pleated, and the closing is made at the left of the
10
front. The sleeves are gathered into bands. The bloomers are made with front and back portions and are closed at the sides. The quantity of material required for the medium size is nine yards twenty-four, eight and one-fourth yards twenty-seven, four and three-fourth yards forty-four or fifty-two inches wide, one and one-half yards twenty-seven for bands.
White Linen Sults.
Tailored suits of white linen show collars, and cuffs of foulard or of a plain satin in contrasting tones—rose, old blue, tan, lavender and the like.
Girl's Costume.
With Gathered Sleeves in Full or
Three-Quarter Length or Plain
Loose Sleeves.
Printed Stockings.
Fashions for printed things extend even to the pretty stockings. They are, undeniably pretty, and so dainty as to be altogether, in keeping with white buckskin pumps. They are made with a white background and printed with groups of pink blossoms about an inch in diameter. The only other pattern, on them, is the drop-stitch, which forms an invisible bar, as background for the flowers. They come in silk and lilie.

Session. It would be bétter for the
State if the sessions were only held-
every four years. The solons who
need the “dough” will néyer have
it so.
No fault could be found with
Mr. Rucker’s administration of
his office, it was always rated as
the best. His color was the ob-
jection, and upon this the preju-
‘diced ones harped. With this
class “*A man’s” not “a man forza
that.”
Tue fisticuff for the champion-
ship for the world takes place at
Reno, Nevada, on Monday. John-
son, tho colored champion is in ex-
cellent condition and is expected to
win over Jeffries his white oppo-
nent.
From sentiment gleaned, the
loyal colored Republicans will be
lined up in this state at the proper
time as they haye never done be-
fore. In the mcantime effective
work must be done to add thous-
ands of voters to the registered
-listin time for the national elec-
tion 19192.
Tur legislature has appropriated
$95,000 for the higher education of
the white children. This we com-
mend. We feel dejected though,
because not one penny has been
given for the like‘education of the
Negro, and yet we are assess on
about $30,000,000.00 worth of
property. ‘The present status of
affairs will exist until the leaders
of thought come intelligently to-
gether and make a determined and
respectfullo request for more aid
for the education of our children.
Tus attention of the authorities
is called to the locating of houses
of illfame in localities occu-
pied by respectable colored fami-
lies, The citizens of these localities
should make a vigorous protest
against these places conducted by
whites of no character: The police
compelled them to leave a certain
locality a few years ago, and the
same can be done whenever they
invade a respectable neighborhood.
For its treatment of colored of-
fice holders in the south, the Re-
publican party may be made to
suffer by the colored Republicans
of the close states. For instance
it is stated that they have an excel-
lent chance to win the governor-
ship of Tennessee, but lily
whiteism and bad treatnient of the
national administration will drive
the colored voters either in the
democratic camp or cause them to
stay at home onelection day. This
influence willbe felt in the Con-
gressional elections wherever there
are colored yoters. It is high time
for the colored voters to resent
some things at least.
‘Tne Savannah Press stated that
the resignation of Rucker closes a
chapter “‘and moves from office a
colored‘man, just as it did when
Crum and Deveaux retired from
the custom houses in Savannah
and Charleston.”’ To many it
would be made to seem that the
late Col. Deveaux was compelled
to retire from office. Of course it
is known that he died in office.
Col, Deveaux was not a quitter.
Had he lived no force could have
been sufficient to cause him - to
swervo and resign to satisfy a few
pedjudicial ones, He would have
prefered defeat to such a compro-
mise as a resignation.
Ir is currently reported that Mr:
Rucker who has very acceptably
filled the position of’ Collector of
Internal Revenue for the past four-
teen years has resigned, This we
regret exceedingly. If, because
his personal affairs compelled this
course, we may feel less regretful,
but if he was coerced and did so
on the promise of angther job, then
we can but retain our former at-
titude. The Taft administration
thus far has not shown its friend-
ship to the colored man and he is
being eliminated in ‘each state
where he has held important posi-
tions, beginning with Crum, whom
we condemned for showing the
whité feather by resigning his post,
and now accepting a place in a for-
eign country.

a hundred years later this was_fol-
lowed by a translation and revision
made by William Tyndale, which ‘was
the first printed Bible, all previous
ditions having been in manuscript
only. ‘Tyndale’s Bible was followed
by the Great Bible; this was followed
by Matthew's Bible, which was almost
wholly copted trom ‘Tyndale's, Still
hanother Bible largely based on “TFq-
dale’s ‘was issued called Taverner’s
Bible: Other translations and revis-

the work of Yo most prominent sehol-

Every community that counts itself a city has in its midst a stronghold
in the bullding which houses the Y. M. C. A. and’serves as heatiquarters for
{ts activities. Where once a store or small building answered this purpose,
the most modern type of building Is now required, equipped with every facll-
ity.for promoting the work, and sometimes of the dimensions of a sky-
scraper. The new ¥. M. C. A. building at Detroit, shown in this picture, is
‘one of this class. a
For the present hot weather the
hammock support designed by ah In-
diana man fs highly appropriate. It
enables the owner to swing his or her
hammock wherever desired,-on rough
or level ground, to be always sure of
shade and to have the hammock at
any height from the.ground that is
convenient. The support consists of
Sern

a pair of standards with an awning
top. The standards are made with
sliding rods and either or both can
be regulated to any height. If the
ground Is too uneven the standard on
the higher part can be shortened or
vice versa. The whole affair 1s con-
structed with an eye for stability, and
when set up will bear any weight the
hammock cords will hold without
breaking. The canopy top makes it
possible to swing the hammock in
open’ spaces, where there is plenty of
breeze, but no other shade. Unfor-
tunately, shade and breeze do not
naturally go together, but the owner,
of one of these supports need not
worry about that.—Washington Star,

“HATS OFF!" THE ORDER.
‘When the National Nurses’ Assoc!-
ated Algmnae opened its thirteenth
annual convention in Mendelssohn
Hall in New York City, there was
consternation among many of tho

graduate nurses from all sections of
the United States, because an order
had been fssued barring from tho
conventfon hall all types of millinery
more than two feet in diameter.

don't,” she explained.
Miss Jane A. Delane. of Washing-
ton, D. C., president of the associat
tion, told the nurses that eventually
the great body of women would join
in preventive work for checking dis,
ease. She said the 50,000 to, 75,000
trained nurses of the country had
been too ready to accept things as
they found them, and should better

Nancy Butler,
Daughter of the Revolution.
A TRUE STORY.
by Lissa May Lipscomb.

Duke of Ormond,

days when Crom-
well ruled England,
and it has

Tha
often been said that if the latter had heeded the duke's wise counsel all would have gone better with the Protector. That the duke was a brave man is well known, and that his courage was inherited by many of his descendants the history of our country truly testifies. My story, however, has to do with the courage of a young girl. Her father, James Butler, a namesake of his ancestor, the duke, came to America when it was really a new world, and settled with his family in South Carolina. He had a wife, many stalwart sons, and our heroine, Nancy, a black-eyed girl of sixteen.
The country was in a state of revolution, and, while it was a time that tried men's souls, and women's too, it was also the opportunity for bravery, hardhood and loyalty. James Butler and his sons were said to know mot fear, and were such "terrors" to the enemy that it was considered a great dead to capture or kill even one of them.
One day a notorious Tory named Cunningham, suspecting that Butler would visit his home to see his wife, who lay very ill, wailed in ambush with a large party of Torles to take him unawares. The English soldiers were many in number, for they dared not venture on this exploit without overwhelming odds. As Butler, two of his sons and a few soldiers were making their way toward Butler's woodland home they were surrounded by the Tory band, fired upon and then hacked to pieces with sabres. The Americans made a brave defence, and Butler himself fought desperately, even after both of his hands were cut off. But when the Torles were done the little badd was nothing but a mangled mass. The Torles then hid in the thickets, hoping more of the family would appear, but James Butler's other sons were far away, with the army, and there was none to come save Nancy.
Nancy Butler was my grandmother's grandmother, and my grandmother has often told me what her grandmother told her, and this was how it was. The massacre happened near enough to the home for Nancy to hear the shots, and fearing she knew not what she made her way through the swamps and forests to the scene of carnage. When the enemies saw that it was only a girl, they taunted her, telling her how hard her father was to kill and how he bounced beneath the sabre strokes, and all this in such insulting tones that Nancy's black eyes flashed fire, and she said: "Yes, make your boasts to a girl, you cowards! but if my father and brothers were living you would be in

hiding if you did not have double as many men. Here lie brave men, and you are dastards, and you know it!" Her great loss had made her indifferent to her own safety; but her words made the men ashamed and they troubled her no more.² It was almost impossible for Nancy to identify her dead, but her shrewd and loving eyes at last saw some familiar articles of attire that helped

her in her sad and terrible search. Then she went home to return with their "old sore back" horse and "wheeled sled," and a Mrs. Smith, the only neighbor, and together they carried the bodies home, dug the graves and buried them.
Grandmother used to say that her grandmother's Revolutionary experiences were not all so sad as this one, and once she was so thrilled at a story that she exclaimed:
"Oh, grandmother, I wish I could be in a war!"
Then Nancy Butler Brooks, ns she was then named, was very angry.
"You wicked child, hush! You
Anyway, poor grandmother had her foolish whim gratified, for she lived through the Civil War, and we have her portrait, painted after she was ninety years old. We also have a manuscript history of the Butler family, written by a descendant of Nancy's, in which the deeds of this rare girl are told.
The United States Flag.
Your stripes of red throb with the life blood of thousands; your stripes of white sigh with the burden of women's tears; your field of blue breathe the steadfastness of a country firmly-united; and your stars sing of a union that is welded together by the mighty hand of an Almighty God.
HISTORIC FLAG CARRIED BY MARYLAND TROOPS DURING THE WAR OF THE REVOLUTION.
Only a few of the flags borne in the American army during the war of the Revolution are still in existence. One of the most noted-of these was carried by the Maryland troops, according to tradition, at the battles on Long Island and Harlem Heights and the several subsequent engagements in which the Maryland regiments participated in the upper, part of the State of New York. It is positively known to have been carried as the regimental flag of the Third Maryland March 28, 1781, the flag remained in

Bachelor was wounded and sent to his home in Baltimore, bringing with him the flag. After the death of Bachelor, on his family, and when the British invaded Maryland in 1814 it was again carried at the battle of North Point by Bachelor's-son, William, a member of the Twenty-seventh Regiment of Maryland militia. This William Bachelor bore the flag in all the parades of the Twenty-seventh Regiment up to about 1840, when the regimental organization expired. Being a

and died in 1885, aged ninety-nine.
The flag remained in the possession of his family until 1894, when it was presented to the Society of the War of 1812, the successor of the Old Defenders' Association, and was preserved by that society until presented to the State of Maryland, at Annapolis, on October 19, 1907. It is one of the State's most valued relics.

Forecast For July Fourth.
If Fourth of July be warm and fair,
Expect to smell powder everywhere.
If rain comes down and wet us through,
Look out for bands and processions, too.
If the sun shines bright and the sky be
blue,
The balloon may go up at half-past two.
If clouds there be on the Fourth o' July,
The crackers will pop and rockets will fly.
If the wind blow north, south, east or
west,
Hotns, drums and trumpets will get no
rest.
Whatever the weather may happen to be,
The Fourth o' July is the day for me!
TH OF JULY.
But he badly mistook us for nappers,
And for faint hearted quitters as well,
For hammers were better than clappers,
So long as he left us the bell.
We threw a stone up through the belfry
Which carried a rope on the fly;
And in spite of Bill Manning and all of his planning
We went forth of July.
When "America" Was Sung.
"On one Fourth of July in Boston," write Dr. Hale in his "Reminiscences" in Woman's Home Companion, "I had spent all my allowance for July and all my 'lection money' on the Common—possibly for a sight in the camera obscura, though I doubt if I had money enough for that—certainly for raw oysters, three for a cent if small, two for a cent if large; probably half a glass of spruce beer, one cent, and two or three checkerberry medals—de now lost—and make what allowance you please for tamarins, cocoanuts, sugar-cane and other foreign delicacies. I was, returning penniless, and had to pass Park Street Meeting House, when an event-of historical importance took place. Long columns 'of boys and girls were going into meeting. The spectacle of a procession of children going to me-'ing on any day but Sunday was as wonderful to me as a volcanic eruption from the Blue Hills would have been. Of course, I joined the throng. So is it that I am one of the little company who heard the national anthem sung for the first time—
My country, 'tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty.
"I hope I did not join in the sing-
ing, for at that time do was to me
meen as ye and nil, and I am afraid
I should not have improved on the
harmonies of the occasion."
Among the Masons.
Those who attended the Grand Lodge communication have returned home full of incentive for renewed work in order to advance the cause of Masonry in the state.
It developed at the Grand Lodge that the subordinate lodges are securing land and building commodious halls thereon, and others are improving what they already have. Not only that, but it was ascertained that a greater number of Masons are owning their own homes than ever before, thus becoming better citizens and neighbors. The practical things of life is what Masonry teaches.
Several reports, have been made about the destroying of halls by fire. It is urged upon every property-owning lodge not only to have a good fire insurance, but also add the storm insurance. It may cost a few dollars to keep them up, but in the end it is a profitable investment.
It is noted that some of our lodges are allowing their property to "run down." They fail to make necessary repairs on the buildings, will not paint or whitewash them, and will not improve the surrounding grounds. The spirit of Masonry calls for improvement along all lines. It is hoped that during the year the march of improvement will be apparent along these lines, and every piece of Masonic property throughout the state will be show places for neatness, thus showing, the class we are making and our love for civic improvement.
All attendants at the Grand-Lodge can look with pride at the personnel of its membership. The minister, the doctor, the lawyer, the banker, the newspaper man, the artisan, the farmer, the business man and those of other uplifting walks of life were there, and they represented the best of their several callings. This shows that our race is progressing.
The Board of Trustees of the Orphan Home, recommended a worthy successor to a noble pioneer, when Past Master George L. Binyard of Eureka Lodge was selected to succeed our lamented Grand Chaplain, Alex Harris, as a member of the board. Brother Binyard is a hard working, and conscientious Mason. He will faithfully do his part for the maintaining of this home. We are all proud of Brother Binyard.
A few of the lodges have failed to render their annual report. These lodges should immediately do so.
The Grand Chapter Order of the Eastern Star will convene in Americus, Ga., Tuesday, August 16th.
Lodges owing for The Tribune are urged to forward the subscription righth away.
ST. JOHN'S DAY IN SAVANNAH.
Sunday afternoon the Masons of the city and the ladies of the Eastern Star gathered at the Masonic Temple. A number of citizens were also present. Past Master E. B. Roberts was master of ceremonies. Past Master W. H. Burgess, Brother George W. Haywood, Mrs. Rosa E. Stevens and Julla C. Woodruff furnished the music, while Mrs. N. M. Mitchell presided at the piano. The program was nicely arranged and well carried out. Past Grand Master J. M. Simms made some very timely remarks which were well received by the brethren and friends. As the pioneer of Masonry in Georgia, Brother Simms is greatly honored. The paper on the Order of the Eastern Star by Miss Gertle Roberts was well prepared and rendered. Many who heard the short historical sketch of the Masons in Georgia by the Grand Secretary, spoke pleasingly of it. Requests were made for its publication, which may be done in the near future. The sermon by Rev. S. T. Redd of Pythagoras Lodge was a gem. It was repleate with excellent thoughts, appropriately illustrated and delivered in such a pleasing manner as to attract the entire attention of all who heard it. A plea was made for the Orphan Home. The result was a fair collection which the committee will forward. As a patron saint of Masonry, St. John was duly honored.
DEATH OF A MASON.
Greenville, Ga., June 22, 1910.
Last Thursday evening the grim monster death visited our town and took one of our loved ones to the great beyond; in the person of Brother Charley Ector.
Brother Ector was a member of the Methodist Episcopal church for a number of years, in which he was a class leader and district stewart. He was senior warden in the Free ancient and Accepted Masonic Lodge and noble grand in the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows Lodge.
In these offices he was always found at his post, ready and willing, to do his duty. Brother Ector leaves a wife and two sons and a host of friends to mourn his loss.
Memorial services were conducted by Brother Joseph Lovejoy, P. S., as Brother R. B. Butt, W. M., was attending the Grand Lodge at Americus, Ga.
All 'is dark within 'our dwelling,
Lonely are our hearts today;
For the one we love so dearly,
Has forever passed away.
Wealth is a good thing, but it was never intended for people to roll in.
Savannah, Ga., June 27, 1910.
To the Officers and Members of Beth-Eden Baptist Church, City:
Dear Friends:
Some months ago we submitted a bill for the amount due by you. Subsequently a communication was sent through your pastor, but to this date we have heard nothing from you.
It is not our purpose to dun our friends or even to push our churches for payment, but this account has been running so long, and as you have paid, no attention to communications sent you, we find it necessary to again remind you of it, and request a speedy settlement, as we are arranging to close out all of the long-standing indebtedness.
It is needless-for us to tell you of our friendship for your church from its organization under the lamented Ellis to the present.
Now we kindly ask you to honor our account and let us hear from you at once so as to avoid the placing of this account along with others for collection.
Very respectfully.
